Review: Very Sharp - This is a great chief knife at a great price. The quality is very solid and the knife is extremely sharp. The design and markings on the knife makes it look absolutely beautiful. The knife is easy to handle and grips well for safety. A must have in the kitchen and doesn't break the bank.
Review: Amazing lifelong set of knives, you'll never need another! VERY SHARP!!! - Absolutely gorgeous quality, meticulous details, well balanced and insanely sharp!!! Be extremely careful when using these knives they require very minimal pressure to cut. If your accident prone please have a 1st aide kit with hemostatic powder to stop bleeding on hand. That said the handles are ergonomic and help with control of the blade as well as grip fatigue. These knives make a wonderful gift that will last a lifetime if properly maintained. Might be a little costly to get the entire set all at once but will save you money in the long run and make a wonderful show piece in your kitchen. The packaging they come in is pristine and elegantly artful I almost want to keep them in the packaging!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where is this knife made?**
A: KYOKU Daimyo Series are produced with Japanese steel, adopting the most traditional Japanese knife manufacturing technologies, and then they are painstakingly handcrafted in China.  VG10 steel production volume is limited due to various factors, however KYOKU's factory has tried the best to satisfy the needs every year so that we can handcraft each and every knife with Japanese made VG10 steel in China.

**Q: Is this a full tang knife?**
A: Yes, it's a full tang knife.

**Q: are these knives for lefties?**
A: Please, the handle is ambidextrous? The blade is the real question! Is the blade symmetrical, as in, is the blade sharpened with a final tapers on both sides of the blade allowing both lefty's and righty's to equally make an easy cut. If the blade is tapered on only one side it will usually favor a righty. The lefty's, 10% of the population, will not find it as easy to cut with that knife as a righty. In fact most lefties have been life long compensating for that 90% of people not being in their right mind!

**Q: Is this knife forged or stamped?**
A: They are forged. Awesome knives.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice quality for the price.
*by A***S on November 3, 2025*

Can’t tell you anything from experience because I bought this as a gift. What I can say is that the knife I received is beautiful, had zero flaws, is a nice hefty weight, and came extremely sharp. If this is truly vg10 steel then this is a fair price for a knife this well made.
